Let's say an area of a national park flooded and all the plants died and the animals died or were displaced. After the water subsided, list 6 steps that would describe the succession of how the plant and animal life returned to this ecosystem.

Explanation:

Primary succession happens following the  total disruption of an area, which includes soil removal.

This involves the...

  1. growth of pioneer microorganisms
  2. initial vegetation growth (moss, lichen)
  3. growth of grasses, tree species
  4. return of animals due to food availability
  5. climax community - equilibrium attained

Succession includes small-scale changes that occur frequently in a community's lifespan. This is caused by unpredictable activities that influence the adaptation spectrum of multiple species, usually increasing limiting factors in various succession stages.

Further Explanation:

Ecological ecosystems are extremely dynamic-they are gradually changing. Usually their development involves: invasion of organisms that control uninhabited areas (first succession) becoming a stable and increasingly complex society, growing organism diversity (secondary)

The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community.

While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation. Several limiting factors, restrict the ability of many organisms to thrive in the area; few pioneer organisms are capable of existing within a rather limited range of tolerance, and aid in making the area more capable of supporting other species.
